We look at the division of 279446 by 84 
We want to divide 279446 by 84.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 84 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 27 / 84

Moving on to step 2:
84 can be fit into 27 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 27.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 27 leaves us with 27.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 27, then carry on: 279 / 84

On to step 3:
If we divide 279 by 84, we get 3 and a remainder of 27.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 27 after subtracting 252 from 279.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 27 and repeat the process: 274 / 84

On to step 4:
When dividing 274 by 84, we get 3 with a remainder of 22.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 33.0
Subtracting 252 from 274 leaves us with 22.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 22 and continue: 224 / 84

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 224 by 84, we get 2 with a remainder of 56.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 332.0
Subtracting 168 from 224 leaves us with 56.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 56, then repeat: 566 / 84

On to step 6:
If we divide 566 by 84, we get 6 and a remainder of 62.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3326.0
If we take 504 away from 566, we end up with 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 620 by 84, we get 7 with a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3326.7
If we subtract 588 from 620, we get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
320 divided by 84 is 3 with a remainder of 68.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3326.73
Deduct 252 from 320 and we're left with 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
84 can be fit into 680 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 3326.738
If we take 672 away from 680, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
When dividing 80 by 84, we get 0 with a remainder of 80.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3326.738
Subtracting 0 from 80 leaves us with 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
800 divided by 84 is 9 with a remainder of 44.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3326.73809
The remainder is 44 after subtracting 756 from 800.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
440 divided by 84 is 5 with a remainder of 20.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3326.738095
Subtract 420 from 440 to get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
The number 84 fits into 200 2 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3326.7380952
Subtracting 168 from 200 leaves us with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
84 goes into 320 3 times with a remainder of 68.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3326.73809523
If we subtract 252 from 320, we get 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 3326.73809523 and a remainder of 6.8e-08.
